2025 in books: I didn't read as much this year as I planned (partly due to our new small human). Again the list is pretty much dominated with sci-fi, fantasy, and horror.
Definitely gravitated towards collections of short stories, although Varney the Vampire more than redressed the balance!

250 years ago today #JaneAusten was born. Little did she know that her works would go on to inspire a trilogy of ttrpg scenarios (alongside a myriad of other works).
To celebrate, Host and Hostility, my ENNIE award winning trio of 1-to-1 #RegencyCthulhu scenarios, is discounted to $2.50!

Fun little project: took receipt of a set of custom dice made by @epoxy-alchemist.bsky.social, based on a vintage Huntley & Palmers Breakfast Biscuits tin. Each die contains a miniature biscuit! Also pictured, two 3D printed 'D2' biscuits.

Just published a supplement for Call of Cthulhu, which features my first ever short story in print (Ex Libris)! It was great collaborating with so many creative minds on this. If you want a collection of 60+ tomes of forbidden lore for your game, check it out!
